The last few episodes just don't make sense. It's dumb, it's over dramatic and it's like they completely forgot the beginning of the show. His dead brother was an afterthought. The friends that believed in him all those years were randomly thrown in at the end. We don't get to see any emotional closure about his ex-girlfriend either. Why was the first half completely different than the second half of the show?
They're acting like the ML can't kill anyone, but those fights in episode 10 absolutely killed people! He shot people with a nail gun and threw dudes out of a moving car. We even see one get ran over. He killed people! Why are they acting like it just didn't happen?
The plot armor was so annoying as well. The ML was stabbed 100s of times, had his back and ribs broken from so many fights. Yet always appears unfazed? Not to mention, the SA scene in the beginning was thrown in just because? You're telling me there was no trauma that followed him around? Why didn't they commit to any of their plots? The ML should be broken beyond belief.
Even though the plot was inconsistent and rushed through too many unconnected plots, at least it was entertaining. But then episode 10 just imploded and what the heck was those last few episodes??
Did you finish watching it? I just finished and I'd love to know what you thought of it. Also I checked your profile…
Sadly, I dropped it :/ I really like the plot, but the low budget made me too disspointed. I kept getting my hopes too high. What do you think of it now that you've finished it? Does it get better?
This could've been a meaningful story with two broken people bonding over their trauma, internalized hatred, and…
It definitely depends on the viewer when it comes to perception. But camera angles, lighting, music, etc can influence how someone views a scene. So angles or framing that is typically used in sexual situations is odd to me to use in the case of SA. I've dropped different movies because of the angles they've used before.
I actually have not seen his work. I've only seen bits and pieces as well as the effect of them afterwards. I don't think it's fair to form solid opinions without having full context, like actually watching them fully, but I still end up forming partial opinions. Like the fact that Ryan Murphy didn't get permission from the victim's families, added sexual scenarios, and dramatized real life crimes. I think it feels different if the crimes are so long ago that the victim's families can no longer be affected by it, but so many of them were blindsided when the shows came out. The amount of thirst edits, people getting tattoos of the actors playing irl serial killers, and parents even dressing their kids as serial killers were insaneee.
I geniunly can't remember where I watched it. I checked the main fansub sites I watch and even checked some of the pirate sites, but couldn't find it? I wonder if it was deleted. If I come across it though, I'll send a link over.
btw I saw that you have Yoo Ah In as your profile pic. he's one of my favorite actors! do you have a favorite movie of his? You can dm me a reply so we don't make the comment section too long if you want.

I don't normally write extremely negative comments. I felt compelled by this one because the directing style felt so odd to me. There is a place for SA stories. They can be done with genuine empathy and nuance. But the directing of this one just reminds me of many other movies where SA scenes are too long, too graphic, and oddly sexualized. It reminds me of Ryan Murphy and how often he takes dark topics and sexualizes them for the sake of doing so, rather than handling the very real crimes that have happened and do happen to real victims every day.
I'm curious to know which threads you're referring to? I tend to write comments on most things I watch, but I don't tend to hate things as viscerally as this one lol. Normally I just complain about things being boring or technical issues that I wish were better.
I wish the drama had focused more on character development and growth rather than romance. The original webtoon was about the FL learning how meaningful hobbies can be, even if they don't lead to better higher paying jobs. The joy and community of the drawing club as well as the very weird ML help the FL to grow. Instead they focused on romance and made this seem more average/blank yn FL. When the point of the webtoon was her growth, the point of the drama is that a hot guy likes her while the side plot is sometimes she stands up for herself.
Also with such a weird ML, showcase that more. It's fun having unconventional fun characters like that.
The pacing is awful and the first 30 minutes have practically nothing to do with the rest of the movie. The character building and motivations are completely different halfway thorough and it's not through character growth or development, it just happens. Ughh I wanted to like this, but the execution is so poor.
This was so good as a rewatch. I can't believe how good the golden era of kdrama romcoms were. The emotional depth, the warm and natural chemistry, and the comedy was so good. Seung Ho's performance is steller here. It's not often you see such effort and talent in romcoms anymore...Way more of a rarity now.
It's a really interesting and unique concept, but sadly the budget is quite low. This would've been sooo good with a better budget, directing, and pacing because the story is really good.

I can barely find older dramas either. especially early 2000s ones :/
